I also love the March Deer but many of the blades of grass in the top half of the image appear to be duplicated as if an out of alignment merge was involved. The effect is to appear that the scene is marginally out of focus.

Because the backlit crocodile has such high contrast ripples in the water, I might give a try at reducing the contrast of just the water.

I hope this helps!

Hi, Frank. I really appreciate your feedback. Regarding your comments:

1 - Anhinga: I am glad you liked it (it is my preferred one of this set, too!)
2 - Marsh deer: It was probably motion blurr. I shot this through a pickup window. The car was moving (no, I was not the driver at the moment :)). This baby was with his mom, grazing, while we were passing, on our way to the lodge.
3 - Cayman: I liked your idea of reducing the contrast of just the water and will try it. Thanks for that!

Regards,
